activity. This activity is mediated by the activation of the so-called GH secretagogue receptor
type 1a. This receptor had been shown to be specific for a family of synthetic, peptidyl and ... Cited by 428 - Related articles - BL Direct - All 9 versions

It is mainly secreted from the stomach mucosa but it is also expressed widely in different tissues
and therefore may have both endocrine and paracrine effects. Ghrelin is the endogenous ... Cited by 225 - Related articles - All 4 versions

the regulation of blood pressure (BP). We therefore assessed the hypothesis that a low ghrelin
concentration may be a risk factor for type 2 diabetes and hypertension. We also ... Cited by 212 - Related articles - BL Direct - All 4 versions
